Marijuana-Why They Wanna Fake It Tho?

Marijuana’s ability to treat pain is widely known, but how does it fare against chronic pain disorders like rheumatoid arthritis? According to a 2011 study, wonderfully!! Patients provided with Sativex-a drug derived from #cannabis #plants-reported significant reductions in pain, reduced inflammation, and better sleep patterns.

Unfortunately, the synthetic #Marijuana medication Sativex has a laundry list of side effects, while real cannabis has a short list that is intermittent, depending on the patient. Please see below for the comparison in the side effects of Synthetic Cannabis and Natural Cannabis

#Sativex side effects:

#Bladder outflow obstruction (YIKES): This medication can cause the inability to urinate in people who have medical problems that obstruct the flow of urine from the bladder (e.g., enlarged prostate, prostate cancer). People with a history of bladder outflow obstruction should discuss with their doctor how this medication may affect their medical condition, how their medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Liver disease: People with liver disease or reduced liver function should discuss with their doctor how this medication may affect their medical condition, how their medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. While taking this medication, your doctor may order blood tests to check how well your liver is working.

Seizure disorders: This medication may cause seizures, especially when higher doses are used or when taken. The risk of seizures is also higher for people with epilepsy, a history of seizures, or who are at risk of seizures (e.g., people with head trauma). People with a history of seizure disorders should discuss with their doctor how this medication may affect their medical condition, how their medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. (Please note that natural #Cannabinoid #Oils are and have been used to treat an array of seizure disorders, successfully, for years)

REAL #Cannabis has the following side effects, sometimes. We have added our suggested methods of dealing with the side effects of Cannabis.

• Drowsiness- Take a nap.
• Dry Mouth or Thirst- Have a drink!
• Giddiness- #Laugh, it truly is the best medicine!
• Hunger- Eat!
• Insomnia- This is rare, utilize Indica's in this case (see Budtender for details)
• Red Eyes- Eyedrops, if you must, otherwise in 3 hours they'll fade. 
• Respiratory Issues -You can vape or utilize the numerous other methods of Cannabis administration. 
• Short-Term Memory Loss- This is stigma more than anything. #Sativa tinctures are well known to have opposite effects!
• Uneasiness or #Anxiety- This can be controlled by the strain and method of use.
